What does everyone think? Personally I reckon the quarters, and possibly semis are achievable.

I think he will win his first two round easily, for me how his 3rd round goes is what will determine how far he goes, id have to give the edge to Gonzo by a little bit should they meet in the 3rd round but not by much! so he can defaintely have a good run

i reckon he'll get the semis...

I think as long as he isnt involved in matches which are very demanding (i.e. wins them in straight sets) he should be OK against a very erratic Gonzo. I hope he gets more first serves in though. If he gets past that round he SHOULD make it to the semis. Until this week davydenko seems to have run out of steam and i have doubts whether he;ll evenr each the fourth round. Next i think he'll face the talented Tommy Haas. I think he is more than capable of beating the German.. IF he gets through to the semis he will most likely face federer again. One opponent to far i think...especially in a best of 5 sets match. I think he might sneak one set...maybe but thats about it.

I think he may reach the quarters if he gets through most of his matches in straight sets. Although if he has some tough five setters, he may struggle as he's not great when it comes to long matches. I think that his first tough opponent will be Gonzalez, but he will probably be able to win that one by coming into the net. Davydenko may also be tricky, later on.

Ok I voted that he'll win it! Im an optimistic person and I always back him to win! even when he's against all the odds.

I agree with you. The answer is a dont; know, but I think if he is fit and has shorter acthes, I think the semis. If the opposite happens, i think he'll be leavign when eh plays Gonzo, and even possibyl earlier if he's unlcuky. I hoep nto though, I'm ebign optimistic here and going semis :ok: I fele that if he si fit, somethign special is going to clik at thsi slam for him I really do. Davy is a threat, but I do think that Murray can beat him. Davy has just won a tournei but he hasnt; had the best tiem fo late.
